Loch Beinn a'Mheadhoin and a somewhat wet Easter weekend in Glen Affric

Easter weekend.

So, of course, the forecast was for rain and wind in the Highlands.

Alternatives: Exploring of Loch Beinn a'Mheadhoin in the canoe - and a bit of low level walking around Cannich and Glen Affric.

Setting off from Glen Feshie - it was chilly - before the sun had a chance to peep over the hills...  Off we go! Jim - Setting off near Auch...
